[0002] The flow detection in the sewage plant treatment process is relatively single. In terms of detection position, the water line flow detection is generally limited to the water inflow metering after the pre-treatment, that is, after the fine grid well and grit chamber, the water outflow metering at the tail water discharge channel (well) position, and the sludge line flow detection is mostly the residual sludge discharge amount of the secondary sedimentation tank. The detection means mostly adopts the channel type electromagnetic flow meter.
[0003] At the most important unit of the sewage plant, that is, the biochemical tank part, the key parameters affecting the carbon removal, biological denitrification and phosphorus removal, equipment operation energy consumption, biochemical tank single inflow (total inflow distribution to the inflow of each biochemical tank single), sludge external return flow (affecting the biological denitrification and phosphorus removal effect), and sludge external return flow are rarely detected. When participating in control, the flow acquisition method is mostly artificial calculation, which is deduced through the water pump motor speed or working power current, and cannot achieve accurate data. The installation quantity and position are relatively single, and the type mostly adopts the electromagnetic flow meter. Due to the complexity and harshness of the on-site sewage environment, the accuracy of the electromagnetic flow meter cannot be guaranteed in the long-term use process.

[0034] Wherein, the biochemical pool 1 is provided with a sludge external return channel 12, which is connected with the sludge external return pipe 3.2 through the sludge external return channel 12;
[0035] The sludge external return channel 12 is used for inputting the sludge 8.7 into the corresponding biochemical pool 1;
[0036] The sludge external return channel 12 is provided with a wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1;
[0037] The wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 scans the sludge 8.7 in the sludge external return channel 12 and converts the scanning result into an electrical signal and uploads it to the sewage plant central control room.
[0038] In practical application, the shell of the wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 is made of waterproof polypropylene or engineering plastic material, and the insulation mode grade is not less than IP68.
[0039] The present application is suitable for both new projects and existing projects. In the channel embedded installation of high-frequency continuous pulse ultrasonic cross-correlation method flow detection equipment, rapid installation and accurate detection can be realized.
[0040] In some embodiments, the sludge external return channel 12 is provided with a heavy weight pad 8.3;
[0041] The lower surface of the wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 is fixedly connected with the heavy weight pad 8.3, which is sunk at the bottom of the sludge external return channel 12.
[0042] The wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 is placed in the channel through the heavy weight pad 8.3 and will not be washed away by the water flow velocity.
[0043] In practical application, the heavy weight pad 8.3 is made of stainless steel material, and the weight is 10 kg, which can prevent the wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 from being washed away and displaced when the channel flow velocity is 5 m / s at most.
[0044] In some embodiments, the heavy weight pad 8.3 is connected with the stainless steel hook 8.8.6 on the bank of the sludge external return channel 12 through the stainless steel chain 8.8.7.
[0045] In some embodiments, the stainless steel chain 8.8.7 is provided with a chain tensioning device 8.8.8.
[0046] In some embodiments, the wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 is connected to the field instrument control cabinet 8.2 arranged on the bank of the sludge external reflux channel 12 through the power and control cable 8.4, and the electric signal is transmitted to the central control room of the sewage plant through the field instrument control cabinet 8.2.
[0047] In some embodiments, the power and control cable 8.4 is fixed to the bottom and inner side wall of the sludge external reflux channel 12 through a plurality of stainless steel pipe clamps 8.5.
[0048] In some embodiments, a pool top catenary lifting hoist 8.8 is arranged on the bank of the sludge external reflux channel 12.
[0049] The pool top catenary lifting hoist 8.8 is fixed to the bank of the sludge external reflux channel 12 through a footing 8.8.2.
[0050] A rotating adjusting disc 8.8.3 and a stainless steel straight rod 8.8.4 are sequentially arranged on the footing 8.8.2.
[0051] In some embodiments, a stainless steel inclined support rod 8.8.5 including a lifting nylon pulley is arranged at the upper end of the stainless steel straight rod 8.8.4.
[0052] The stainless steel inclined support rod 8.8.5 including the lifting nylon pulley is provided with a stainless steel catenary 8.8.1.
[0053] When the sludge external reflux channel 12 is maintained, the position of the stainless steel inclined support rod 8.8.5 is adjusted through the rotating adjusting disc 8.8.3, and the wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 is lifted through the stainless steel catenary 8.8.1.
[0054] In practical application, the pool top catenary lifting hoist 8.8 can rotate 360° through the rotating adjusting disc 8.8.3, and any wedge-shaped ultrasonic sensor 8.1 at any position can be lifted.

[0059] The above measurement principle is similar to the active remote sensing measurement technology of high-resolution radar, and the difference is that the present application adopts continuous pulse high-frequency ultrasonic waves, while the radar remote sensing adopts pulse electromagnetic waves.
[0060] The radar pulse electromagnetic wave has a long transmission distance and is easily affected by electromagnetic noise, so noise equalization processing is needed, and the process is complex. Moreover, the highest resolution of the reflector is 5nm, and the measurement accuracy has reached the limit. The present application adopts a flow detection method of near-distance ultrasonic wave transmission, is not affected by any electromagnetic wave interference in the transmission process, has high signal-to-noise ratio and high detection accuracy.
